paleocrat has never touched drugs or PUSSY! he likes priests! keep believing SUCKERS!

[paleocrat]

I am posting a video right now that deals with people who leave comments like the one you left. It is one thing to say something like that over the Internet. It is something altogether different when you call my radio program. If I had to bet the farm, I'd say you'll join the lost list of those who leave gibberish on my site but are too afraid to call my show. Of course, you could always visit my Web site and comment under bogs dealing with this material... nah, that would take smarts.

a radio show with unfunny religious nuts like yourself. damn, i'd hate to miss it but... go try some drugs or pussy and get back to me!

[paleocrat]

Typical drive-by comment from someone on YouTube. What a joke. People like you are so predictable.

My married life is... vibrant. Three kids and we don't plan to stop any time soon. Needless to say, I am not lacking in one department.

As for drugs, I cannot confirm or deny my having used or continued use of drugs, be they licit or illicit.

Get a life.

Humans observe that the universe appears to be one where causality and law reigns. This observation alone justifies our use of induction. We don't have to go deeper and ask, for example "WHY?". "Why" may even be an ill defined question if reality simply exists.

The observing of laws gives us reason to attempt induction and describing the laws mathematically(and yes, math is also derived from observation).

[paleocrat]

If reality simply exists? Well, that is quite a naive assumption, and one that begs the question. Actually, it doesn't evade the one asking why, it simply delays it one step. One will then ask why you believe it "just exists."

The issue here is concerning the necessary preconditions for empiricism. Well, the necessary preconditions for everything! To be satisfied with "we just do it" or "we know it happens" is to beg the question and propose a non-answer.

'the atheistic worldview cannot account for the trustworthiness of our senses'

Eh.

There is no atheistic worldview. Atheism is the lack of belief in God, that's it.

You may be referring to EVOLUTION, in which case it CAN account for our senses. Our senses are a result of evolution.

you rock palio crat

[donttttt]

atheistic evolution??? man evolution has nothing to do with atheism. it's just that you christians automatically assume since evolution endangers / disagrees with the bible, it has to be atheistic. but it isn't. it's just science, no more no less. as much as observing gravity or inventing new cellphones is science. it's not science's fault if by chance sth is proven wrong, just bc you don't feel comfortable about it.

What the FUCK are you talking about science dodging bullets? Get off your fat pseudo-intellectual ass and compare what science has achieved in 200 years to what religion has in 2000.

And you really overdid that redneck crap. Fuckin weak-ass straw man attack.

[HoLOLcaust]

And people wonder why we laugh at creationists. 

[friendofthefunk]

What does the ability or inability to account for "uniformity" have to do with the veracity of theism? I'm sorry but your rant seems to be a string of non sequiturs.

[JayChouFanatic]

You have no idea how evolution works. STFU

[L00NGB00W]

Ultimately I must agree with the shotgun toting redneck.

Largely irrelivant.

How does your argument justify religious belief, or infallibility in any way?

[L00NGB00W]

What a strange argument.

'Uniformity of nature'

It sounds as if you want to know what accounts for causality?

The Standard Model of Physics accounts for it pretty well.

"How can the atheistic world view account for trustworthyness of the senses?"

Evolution explains that.

Those creatures that had psychotic senses, or irrational minds would likely die off. (Jump in front of a truck, etc...)

Those creatures that had sharp senses and rational minds would likely succeed.

[Rayvn7]

You "argument" makes NO SENSE WHATSOEVER. If my fingers turned into bananas, that would be more evidence towards gods then towards science...

The fact that atoms behave predictably IS science...

[bullwhipjesus]

Everything in the Universe is here science is just a way of figuring out what is out there and how things work. The scientific method is the best known way of doing this because of its track record.
